Michael McGovern
MCIBS
One of the founding Directors of Port Brae Wealth Management, Michael began his career in the financial services sector when he joined the Bank of Scotland in 1987. Whilst working at the Bank, he completed his degree as a Member of the Chartered Institute of Bankers in Scotland (MCIBS) at Heriot Watt University. He qualified as a financial adviser in 1996 and began work in wealth management in 2004.
Specialising in Investment, Retirement and Inheritance Tax Planning, Michael firmly believes in building strong long-term relationships with his clients and providing a robust review and ongoing advice service in order to support this. As a result, many of Michael’s clients span generations of the same families and a lot of new clients come from personal referrals - reflection of the meaningful service which Michael strives to offer.
Outside of the office, when Michael is not being kept busy by family life, he can be found out running or on the golf course.
Michael is based mainly in our Peebles office.
